Central Railroad of New Jersey Terminal

Highlight • Historical Site

Central Railroad of New Jersey Terminal - Very nice - little visited - park with beautiful historical grounds and a perfect view of the New York skyline. Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty are also much easier to reach from here.

Liberty Walk Promenade, Liberty State Park

Highlight • Trail

Liberty State Park in New Jersey offers stunning views of Manhattan, the Statue of Liberty, and Ellis Island, attracting around four million visitors annually. The park, spanning 1,212 acres, houses the historic Central Railroad of New Jersey Terminal, and the "Empty Sky" 9/11 Memorial, a tribute to the 749 individuals with New Jersey ties who perished in the September 11 attacks. Visitors can enjoy a two-mile promenade called Liberty Walk, which provides scenic views of the Hudson River and Manhattan, and connects to various amenities like the marina, picnic areas, playgrounds, and spots for fishing. Ferry services to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island are also available from here.

Liberty State Park Waterfront Walkway

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

An easy ride along the New Jersey side of the Hudson River with a great view of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. It's a short ride from a large selection of good pubs and restaurants in Jersey City. The Liberty State Park Walkway goes much further than what I've highlighted, but this is a key area.

Huge clock that can be read from Manhattan. Naturally, the view of Mahattan's southern tip is great from here.

Jersey City 9/11 Memorial

Highlight • Monument

The Jersey City 9/11 Memorial is located on the Hudson River Waterfront Walkway at the foot of Grand Street in Paulus Hook near Exchange Place in Jersey City, New Jersey. It comprises three components: a sculpture of steel girders from the original World Trade Center, an inscribed black granite stele, and Makeshift Memorial. The site on the Hudson Waterfront opposite the World Trade Center site was a triage set up during the '9/11 boatlift' and thereafter became a staging area for rescue operations.

View of the Manhattan Skyline

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Manhattan skyline is impressive from anywhere, but the Katyn Memorial deserves special mention here. A cruel story...
